In a small village, the sound of drums brought fear to Maya. Tonight, under the full moon, she would become Shakti, a devadasi in the temple, even though she didn't want this life. Her dreams of storytelling clashed with old traditions, squeezing her like a strong snake. With debts and shame surrounding her, Maya's life felt suffocating.
As Maya moved towards the temple, a glimmer of hope came from Prince Vikramaditya. He, a rebel with a good heart, stopped the ceremony with his sword, sparking anger from the villagers. Swords clashed, chaos unfolded, and Maya found herself caught in a game too big for her to understand.
Vikramaditya fought bravely, creating an escape for Maya. In the quiet forest, he set her free, promising to break the chains holding her captive. Their journey began with a promise to rebel against oppressive traditions.
Yet, challenges lay ahead. Raghuvir, hungry for power, stirred trouble, and whispers turned into lies. The fight for justice demanded its first sacrifice, and the drums of destiny, silent for a while, waited to thunder again. The couple's journey from thorns to crown had just begun, and the shadows of the past lingered, testing their resolve for a kingdom where destiny wasn't determined by birth but by the bravery in their hearts.
